Anthony Davis: Adjustments Kentucky Star Will Have to Make in NBA

Barring an insane and unforeseen circumstance, Anthony Davis is going to be the No. 1 pick in the 2012 NBA draft.

The Kentucky superstar was the most dominant college player during the 2011-12 season and easily led the Wildcats to the national championship. Now he’s going to make the jump to the NBA and tackle plenty of new challenges.

If Davis wants to succeed at the next level, here are some changes he must make in order to continue thriving.

Bulk Up

Davis has the height to play PF or C at 6’11”, but he’s got to add significant muscle to his lanky 220-pound frame.

There are tons of powerful bigs in the NBA that will straight up outmuscle Davis at this point, which would negate his extreme athleticism on both ends of the floor.

It goes without saying that Davis must spend a lot of time in the weight room this summer in order to fill his frame out and prepare to bang in the low post.
